Cha-ching. Nintendo worldwide president Satoru Iwata tells the New York Times today that Virtual Console -- Nintendo's name for the game download service on Wii -- is gonna rake in the big bucks.

“In the long run,” Mr. Iwata, Nintendo’s president, said, “I think the virtual console could become one of the most significant revenue streams for Nintendo.”
